Previously, I've posted an article about initial compilation of EOS in CentOS, missing mangodb driver and plugin. Now it's completed in this updated tutorial.
There is a lot of posts about how to compile EOS on MacOS and Ubuntu, and the official site has given a complete compile procedure guidence & automatic scripts to help the developers.
However the choice of operting system is subjected to the actual cluster we use in production environment, and the official did not give a clue how to compile on different systems. According to my own compile practice, there are a lot of bugs and traps that need to be avoid when you compile the EOS. To help the developers who are anxious to experience the EOS on their prefered operating system, I write the following article to demonstrate how I compile on CentOS 7 and how to avoid the traps that hidden under the offical guide .
Due to the requirements of building LLVM WebAssembly，the host must have 10GB free space and the RAM need to be greater than 16GB, multiple cpu cores is suggested.
The operating system we use is CentOS 7.4 , you may choose other Redhat releases.
According to the description on EOS.IO github official site,the EOS project is composed on C++14 stander, the default compile come with CentOS 7 is GNU 4.8.5, thus we need to manual choose different repos to install higher verison of GNU compile toolchain. Besides, the CMake version in CentOS 7 official site is a bit old, we need to install the newest Cmake manually.
